Default Stuck in Fastboot/ Recovery;

Hey guys,

I unlocked the bootloader for my NS4G, installed CWM 5.8.0.2, and wiped cache, dalvik, battery stats, and boot, and then proceeded to install the v7 JB ROM by hp420... the problem is when I tried to install it, I get a status 7 and an abort. When I try to reboot my phone, it obviously stays in fastboot, because I don't have boot or a ROM, yet I can go back to recovery... can anyone tell me how to revert to a stock ROM or how to install the v7 ROM or another ROM so I can actually use my phone? Thank you!

Edit: Mounted Storage to computer, tried to install a CM9 ROM to the phone, same problem.. seems like CWM is the problem, how would I fix this?

Here's a link to download the 4.0.4 factory image for your phone:

https://dl.google.com/dl/android/aos...y-10660f4c.tgz

open it with 7Zip and flash the boot.img and system.img in there with fastboot.

You need to format system when you flash a custom ROM over a stock ROM. Well basically anytime you go from one different ROM to another like aokp - petes- miui and so on.


Its called a full wipe

Okay, thanks guys, I have a problem. When I use fastboot command line, I type fastboot flash system (systempath) and when I hit enter a whole list of options pop up. what should I actually type after? I don't know what to do with the options.

Edit: after an hour of trying, it finally just gave in and it worked! Thank you guys so much!
